Profile Problems

My profile appears to be having the opposite effect with another five messages sent to various women, four of which were ignored whilst the other to replied telling me to essentially "bog off". So rather than having ladies heading in my direction they all appear to be rushing for the hills in ever increasing greater numbers.

My current profile is as follows:-

"Hi There. I'm a caring and genuine person with a dry sense of humour and I just love a good laugh. Friends have described me as being outgoing, kind, generous and very laid back (I definitely go with the flow and I’m more likely to shrug than shout). I enjoy travelling and have wide tastes in music from classical to the latest pop. I much prefer a pub to a club and love getting out to the countryside or coast for a meal or a walk. I also try to keep fit and can often be found at the gym (minus the grunting or posing in the mirrors). I'm looking for an affectionate, fun and caring woman who is up for some fun days out and cosy nights in. So, if you fancy a chat then please do drop me a line."

I suspect it sounds too desperate and probably too mushy in places so I’ve replaced a few of the key works to see if that has any effect:-

"Hi There. I'm a genuine and friendly person with a daft sense of humour. Friends have described me as being outgoing, kind, generous and very laid back towards everything that life throws at me. I enjoy keeping fit down the gym, travelling and have wide tastes in music from classical to the latest pop. I much prefer a pub to a club and love getting out to the countryside or coast. I'm looking for an affectionate, fun and caring woman who is up for fun days out or cosy nights in with a DVD and a bottle of wine. So, if you fancy a chat then please do drop me a line."

Right, that’s a bit shorter. The question is, is it any sweeter? Only time will tell.>
